Wow..October Already and my new BFF!!

Yep, bad blogger! I know, just had a really busy couple weeks here and no time to jump on the 'ol blog and update!

Let's see...yeah, got a new BFF, her name is Cathy! Love ya girlfriend!! Cathy and I met about a year ago at a photography class. We had been on 2peas for awhile, trying to hook up because I knew that she lived by me and we were just never able to get together...fast forward to a photo class that I signed up for at our local community college last spring...well...I'm in class and the teach is taking attendance, calling our names and I hear her name called (she was late though and not there yet), so she walks in and sits right next to me. The class begins and during a break, I leaned over and said "Are you Cathy..." she said "yes" and so I introduced myself and we've been friends ever since! A couple weekends ago we met at Archiver's for a mania with a bunch of our other friends and had a blast! I worked on my Christmas cards (almost finished them...and I can't really share them yet) and Cathy worked on the fabulous layout that moved her forward in the Bad Girls Top Designer challenge (let me just say, that layout rocked!!!)...in between some serious scrapbooking and paper crafting, we took time for a photo shoot...even added some wonderful floral props to ourselves!!! Arn't these pics a total riot?!! Gotta love my girl Cathy, she is amazingly talented, a total riot, and super sweet!!! Love ya girlfriend, this is for you!

Here are some of our other friends who were croppin' with us, all very talented and fun girls to hang with!! Carla, Carol, Tracy (who wouldn't let us take her picture), and Traci!

so, there ya have us! We had a great time and I can't wait to do it again!! I got to spend this past weekend at another "sisters" crop...yep, Scrap In Style tv crop and I'll share my pics and layouts from that in another post!

Lastly, new month, new video (expect a change in a week or so though LOL)....and this one is for all my "Rockin' Like Dokken" sisters from our fabulous weekend!!!

You are never too old to ROCK AND ROLL MAN!!!!!!!!!
Until next time,
Blessings!

Cricket.....Im glad that you loaded these pictures because I didnt get a chance to see them the day that we scrapped. You and Cathy crack me up with those flowers in your hair. We are gonna have to get togehter for a whole weekend crop one of these days.

Cathy said...

Taking my bow, now..............

You are the rock'n BFF! I might add you crack me up!!!

So anyway... on a differnt note... I'm sorry I was not able to make it this past weekend, even if just to steal your idea and make the same holiday cards, using your stamps. I was too guilt stricken with so much other things that I really had to do based on obligations... I bet it was a ton of fun. Maybe you should have printed out my picture and propped me in a chair. Or on Tracy's lap or something.

Lets get together soon. I might want to come by and borrow your stamps soon. What do you think?

Hugs!
